As the semester begins wrapping up, don't forget to register for Plot-A-Thon! Not only do you get access to workshops, access to the Plot-A-Thon canvas page, and participation in the Plot-A-Thon itself, you also gain access to our speaker events, like our plenary speaker event with Rika Nishikawa, Lead Content Designer at Skydance Interactive.

Riki Nishikawa will be speaking how gathering available data and analyzing it plays a vital role in connecting the developer to the players, becoming a guiding light in game development where developers are always chasing the subjective goal of "finding the fun."

Rika Nishikawa is Lead Content Designer at Skydance Interactive, a game division of Paramount Skydance that develops original and IP-based virtual reality and immersive video games. She graduated from California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and her career thus far has involved a wide array of video games from mobile to console and indie to AAA.

This special speaker event will take place during Plot-A-Thon Day One on Feb. 20 from Noon to 1 p.m. and is only available for those who register for Plot-A-Thon, so register now at: https://bit.ly/PAT26
